Basketball: Cheat Sheet for Beginner

in #parenting5 years ago (edited)

Defense First!!!

  1. Protect the rim/key
  2. Stop the ball, not steal
  3. Know your check; See ball see check
  4. Plant your feet; Slide with hands out
  5. Hands up; Box out; Rebound

Note: Steal is just a bonus, reach out is too risky, likely a foul or be fooled

On Offence

  1. Think ATTACK first; Attack the basket
  2. Triple Threat; Always hide your ball
  3. Give and go; Off-ball screen
  4. Be doubled, find your open teammate.
